alecia and dan were married on september 25th at frank lloyd wright's westcott house in springfield, ohio. even though it rained on and off .... both weddings that weekend were so unique, fun and perfect . i loved everything about both couples and their weddings. you will see samantha + brian's wedding next but back to this post.
alecia did a fab job planning every detail. the outdoor ceremony had twinkle lights and lanterns everywhere and i especially loved her white sofa's at each corner in the back ... such a nice comfy touch! the entertainers were incredible and my all time favorite decision was the authentic burrito stand .... YUM, YUM!!!! alecia + dan ... thanks for having me be part of your day!

today has been a great day ... thank you to everyone who wished me a happy birthday! i did squeeze in some work of course because it makes me happy :)
here's an amazing engagement session i did in chicago about a month ago. amanda and brian are not only incredibly sweet but so fun to be with .... i really enjoyed flying out and running around town with them. we went to wrigley field, the "W" hotel, grabbed lunch, starbucks of course, and hung out by the lake as well. what a great backdrop "the city of chicago" ... i obviously don't get to do that everyday ...haha! thanks for a fun day and i can't wait until your rhode island wedding in 2010!

(11.05.09 @ 09:12 PM)as I said yesterday, I'm always checking your blog - and you always manage to amaze me! it was great seeing you yesterday!
(11.09.09 @ 12:16 PM)Carmen, I continue to admire your work and you have grown immensley since you shot our event in Dayton 5 years ago. But I must say, I am a bit disappointed you did not call me when you were in Chicago. I had such a great time with you and JD last time you were in town. Give my best to your boys, and tell that cutie husband of yours "hi" from all of us at the show! Best Personal Regards, O.
(11.12.09 @ 08:04 AM)Oh my gosh, what a great session! chicago is so much fun! I love the pictures!
(11.13.09 @ 11:16 AM) Carmen, you captured the love and enthusiasm that Amanda and Brian exude when they're together.
I am Amanda's mom and we are truly looking forward to your artistic eye capturing the magic of Amanda and Brian's wedding day!

(11.16.09 @ 09:52 PM)Awesome pictures yet again. Regretting that my wedding did not have a burrito stand. That rocks. And is that really Dave Chappelle in that picture, or am I dreaming?!

(11.18.09 @ 09:04 PM)Wow! The pictures look FANTASTIC! And no one could tell the weather and the lighting conditions you were up against. You were able to capture the essence of that night and our relationship. It is amazing how Alecia's personality came out in the photos. Thanks for helping to make it a special day for us.
